In January 2005, TechKnowledge introduced the Middle East to digital publishing, and the rest is history. In only ten years of service, TechKnowledge has established itself in six countries, with sixty employees, and has provided over one million students across 1,000 libraries with specialized electronic information and innovative research tools unlike any company in the region has done before.

TechKnowledge and sister company, Al-Manhal, are pleased to have been the official Silver Sponsors of the Second IFLA / AFLI Regional Conference , the result of a fruitful three-year partnership between the prestigious International Federation of Library Association (IFLA) and the Arab Federation of Library and Information (AFLI).As Silver Sponsors, we helped make it possible for Arab library and information professionals to attend the biggest library and information gathering in the sector, with over 4,000 attendees coming together this year at the world-renowned New Library of Alexandria in Egypt, a space devoted to recapturing the spirit of openness and scholarship of the original Bibliotheca Alexandrina.

As per the contract terms, the Authority can use the books for scientific research purposes and making copies. Tech Knowledge will also provide technical support to the staff working at the Authority’s Reading Division, which will be launched soon, on how to use the database.The e-books are valuable addition to the library, as they will help researchers get accurate information.Date: 10 May 2015
